FENCING: Over 100 kilometres of new fencing has been completed across 'Aitken', representing a substantial investment into the property's operation and livestock management. Fencing consists of barb and hinge joint with a central 50m wide laneway providing ease of livestock movement.
The fencing, combined with the extensive water network, provides a strong foundation for the efficient management and rotational grazing of both sheep and cattle.
